Blessing from on High

Today was quite a day. Every text that I got from Cody entailed something to the effect of, "I think all the clocks are broken... time is going so slow."

Why? Today was the results of the Bar Exam.

I picked Cody up early from work, so we could open the PDF file together. We came to the computer, with the kids gathered around, and each offered a prayer to Heavenly Father, knowing we would accept his will either way.

Cody opened the PDF file through the Arizona Bar Website, and scrolled through the names of those who passed. 612 applicants, 434 passed... 71%.

I swear he went through it so slowly.

Then we came to the J's...

Ellen Stutheit Jackson; Tieton, WA

Elizabeth Jean Jarczyk; Mesa, AZ
Bryan Taylor Jensen; Mesa, AZ
Ronald Jared Jensen; Gilbert, AZ
Shannon Freeman Johanni; Phoenix, AZ
Cody Warren Johnson; Mesa, AZ
Rebecca Kathleen Jones; Sun Lakes, AZ

His name was there! Cody passed the Bar! We all got down on our knees again, and each thanked the Lord for his help and his blessing. His MANY BLESSINGS!

Then after calling family, and texting/facebooking friends, we headed to Red Lobster to celebrate. Then we drove down to downtown Prescott, to drive around the Courthouse, and Cody's work... we came home to have hot chocolate, and just put the kiddos to bed.  What a great night!

Cody's new suffix is no longer JD, it's .... Cody W. Johnson, Esq.

He kept these ticket stubs in his wallet while waiting for the results (they were from the exam)...

We're so proud of Cody, and so thankful to Lord for all His help and guidance! All the glory goes to Him!
